The heartfelt speech likely helped the father-of-four who admitted on Lorraine that remembering his daughter can cause him to 'buckle'.

He explained: "You could be talking to somebody, you could be walking down the road, and I’ve got to be very careful because this is still very raw… but I’m walking down the road and suddenly out of the blue there’s an awareness of, her… and you know, I buckle.

"And I’ve got to be very careful because walking down the Kings Road there are Paps everywhere so I have to duck off into a lane or something, and blub for a while and then get on with it and that’s it, so I’d imagine that will be there for a long time, I mean what else.”
